Ok I love ur writing can u write smth abt camping with Billy!!🥰
(thank you <3) (little billy blurb to end the day) ౨ৎ꣑ৎgetaway with billy౨ৎ꣑ৎ fem reader x billy the kid
He'd decided to take you away for a night. Away from the leering gazes of the townspeople who had no business of disapproving but did anyways. You told your parents you were going to stay with your sister for a bit, and then you were free. Your sister herself knew about you and Billy, and she generously covered for you.
It was bliss, being away from everything, and finding your place in the secluded forest. You rode your horses side by side, surveying the surroundings with a smile. It was so peaceful, something you weren't used to.
Billy led you to a little meadow tucked into the trees, wildflowers sprouting all over the place. You let your horses graze while you spread out the bedroll and he found firewood. The sight of him carrying all that wood back to the camp made you weak at the knees, and you captured that picture in your mind, saving it for later.
He smirked, noticing you staring at him as he deposited the wood nearby. "See somethin' ya like?"
You kept your eyes on him, shrugging. "You're pretty."
Laughing and shaking his head, Billy knelt and grabbed you around the waist, rolling over so you were on top of his chest. Endlessly fascinated with your hair, he slid his hand into it, holding it back from the side of your face.
"I'm pretty...got the prettiest thing in the world on m' chest," he mumbled, nudging his nose against yours. "I'd die a happy man with you on top've me."
You found this romantic and rewarded him with a kiss on his nose, tugging at one of his suspenders. "Sweet talker."
He narrowed his eyes playfully. "You love it."
"Wasn't complaining," you sang, and he laughed, rolling you over so you were under him now, pinned against the soft grass and wildflowers. He thought the setting made you look ethereal.
"'S like you were made to sleep with the flowers," he shook his head in disbelief, sitting up a little to look at you. "Think ya might be a flower come to life."
You only smiled, settling back against the soft earth. Billy, recovering from his disbelief, leaned back over you and pressed his mouth softly to yours. You reached up, snatching his hat off his head so it wouldn't poke your forehead. Still holding it in your hand, you wrapped your arms around his neck as you kissed him back. His body's weight against you...pressing you into the ground...it was heaven.
Billy indulged you in everything you wanted to do. He let you rest your head in his lap while you wove picked flowers into a chain. When you were walking around, he crouched and held his arms out for you from behind so he could carry you on his back. You liked being carried that way, your arms around his shoulders, pressing kisses to his cheek from behind. Soon, it grew dark, and he started a fire, giving you his jacket as the night air became cooler.
You came over to him where he sat on the bedroll and he spread his legs, holding out a hand for you to sit. Happily, you settled against his chest, and his arms wrapped protectively around you as you both looked at the stars.
"North star," he breathed, pointing at it. You followed his finger, and he smiled, resting his chin on your shoulder. "'N over there, that's Orion's belt, see? The three lil' stars all close together?"
Nodding, you studied the sky, trying to see it through his eyes. "You know the name of every star, don't you?"
He chuckled, shaking his head. "Not every star darlin'. Just a few of the ones everyone knows."
"Will you show me another one?" you settled against his chest, knowing he liked talking about them. He beamed, and looked up, searching for another constellation.
You stayed like that for a while, just leaning into the safety of his arms. He noticed when you grew sleepy, smiling softly and shifting so you were lying against him, on his chest, your body still cradled between his legs.
Protesting lightly, you mumbled, "Not tired."
He smiled, adjusting his jacket around you. "'Course not. But lie down with me anyways, m'kay?"
You nodded, closing your eyes and fully relaxing against him. Billy's hand found its way to the back of your head, just holding you there. The weight of his big, warm palm soothed you right into sleep.
He kissed your forehead, watching the last embers of the fire die out. And for the first time in awhile he truly felt content. You were between his arms, and that was all that mattered.
come talk about billy here!

WAIT WAIT WAIT SO
tl;dr :
Xie Lian's theory suggests that one of the four elements is "Birth," likely referring to his Guoshi. The Crown Prince, possibly similar to Xie Lian, may have caused a village's downfall, leading to his Guoshi advising him. This Crown Prince, White No Face, turned ghost, possibly through a deal with the previous heavenly emperor, orchestrating the Tong'lu challenge to conceal his strength and using Xie Lian as a pawn. The shared face between them could be due to an unlucky star sign, with the goal of manipulating Xie Lian for their plans, leading to hostility when he descended.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
XIE LIAN's theory is right but kinda. One of the 4 thingies is Birth and that was probably his Guoshi and The 4 thingies (yes I forgot the name) were the generals/subordinates of the crown prince.
This Crown Prince probably did smth like Xie Lian and it might have caused the village to meet it'd end and hence he Guoshi advisinh him and like telling him it was all because of him
This Crown Prince is White No face who became a ghost OR MAYBE NOT he was filled wih resenment and shit and bc he had already ascended he couldn't die so he did smth probably made a deal with the prvious heavenly emperor and now jun wu too to hide the fact that he wasn't a ghost
now he wanted smth to cover up the fact that he as a "Ghost" could be that strong so he decided to make the Tong'lu challenge (i don't have a bettter name lol) He was the crown prince and he saw the demise of his ppl with his own eyes prolly made him go mad yk?
and so he decided that his deserted kingdom was the best way to use as a play ground for the challenge (lol) and thus helping some of the strongest ghost kings to emerge so that his existence is not suspisious.
now the fact that they have the same face was probably because they were born in the same star sign which was deemed unlucky (makes sense why Xie Lian's always unlucky (except for Hua Cheng)) and they some how discovered this and decided to teach Xie Lian and to help him become strong so that he could take over the heavens or smth and use him like a puppet yk?(which i suspect is what they're doing with junwu)
and when Xie Lian descended they were mad because their plans failed and they decided that he wasn't someone that could be reined in like how they had hoped. SO they decided it's better to kill him (BREAK HIM BEYOND REPAIR) than let him cause havoc and what better way than using the ppl of XianLe???
Now the trap laid by white no face and yang ling was to lure him out but white no face had other intension maybe like stripping/weakening Xie Lian's powers and taking his place bc the only person who saw is face was Xie Lian
and these ppl have discovered that the ppl born with that specific constellaion undergoes 2 awakenings or smth (with prev experience) so that might've been their aim but um ye that's it for now ig
I haven't figured out the details but this is the gist of it sort of lol
#tgcf theory#hua cheng#hualian#tgcf#tian guan ci fu#heaven officials blessing#xie lian#mxtx tgcf#hualian invented love#crimson rain sought flower#san lang#white no face#guoshi#heavenly emperor#mount tonglu

You said that Orion name came from a chocolate, and there are others that ask if it was based from the constellation one. But every time I see the name Orion I think of Orion Pax, the transformer one.
FKSKGMMCJVKSJ Orion Pax,,,, that's incredibly valid
heavens, Orion the Ittie Wishes he has had half as normal life as Orion Pax did, though if we r thinkin Prime Pax, the books especially, the privileged higher cycle guy thing at least stick. "I can't even go to the amusement park... :(" Pax said to a slave
see but Orion Pax's transformation to Opetimus Prime reminds me that while I was drawin Orion the Ittie for that one meme that started my design sesh yesterday, i was inevitably thinking bout his lore n shit n Damn
Orion tries to keep up his positive and smiley attitude as much post-the polar war, but anyone who served in war in amore personal n physical way won't be completely okay. there were lessons that one is guaranteed to learn and carry with them forever if they survive and Orion's life wasn't ever Too badly threatened (maybe there was an attack on his facilities a few times but yeah. boy big n valuable the opposing side wouldn't wanna completely destroy him)
so I'm thinkin that at the start of it all he served more as a mascot than anything. the soldiers kind of hated him for it cuz he just talks big game n does nothing. but Orion is a good, brave, protective person, so despite his Admin trying to warn him Not to, he begged the general on site to accept his overseers as spies/messangers for the troops. the general didn't want to at first, cuz Orion as an Iterator is a religious object and this could possibly damage him, which his Houses would Not like. but Orion begged on n reassured it will be fine, so the general accepted
so not only did Orion did stuff like run iterations on tactics (the more expected thing of him to do in this situation) he also personally beared witness to the horrors of wars on both sides. ended up striking camaraderie n feeling of brotherhood with the Eo's soldiers n the general became smth of a father figure. ended up understanding that wars are often not black and white and there isn't truly such a thing as really winning one
behind those smiling eyes is a terribly burdened man
and I'm Thinkin that his war-connected wisdom should absolutely show up in Saint-time and be a comfort to Notos. Orion would be ascended just before Sporadic. in a way, he gives Notos a certain kind of peace/reassurance that it would really need after ascending Haboob (That is pending)
#Spot says stuff#rw#oc tag#oc: orion's pathway#hi i just woke up wassup ough fuck the background character is becomin Important fuck

the bingo card returns! this time filled out.
A fully x-ed out square means I consider it correct in it's entirety, single line means I think it was right in some way.
The single question mark is because I'm refusing to call it until season 2 based on certain information.
Explicit spoilers under the cut as I discuss some of these.
Entirely Correct Squares:
Someone Else Dies (Hotel) - self explanatory. Someone other than Angel Dust died in the hotel cast (o7 general pentious can't wait to see you cause chaos in heaven)
Side Character Dies - why did lute have to kill dazzle qwq
Adam Dies - GET WRECKED IDIOT (unironically i enjoy him as a character but there is nothing more satisfying to me than watching a jackass die in a particularly embarrassing way; getting stabbed in the back by someone who "weighs 10 pounds soaking wet" while ranting about how sinners should be grateful to you because all of humanity came from your nuts definitely counts)
Lilith Reveal - y'all hear smth? more sincerely, i was leaning in this direction - specifically that Eve and Lilith switched places at some point, but y'know what. I'll take Lilith being in heaven.
Alastor and Charlie Make A Deal - This scene gets me thinking about Alastor's own deal, and I *will* be talking about it for ages. Can't wait to post my longshot theory about who the deal is with. But, yeah, might not be for her soul, but a deal was struck nonetheless.
Lucifer Goes Apeshit - self explanatory again. We saw demon form.
Ends on a Cliffhanger - I have so many questions, and theories, and new headcanons that I'm excited to share with y'all.
Partially Correct Squares:
Charlie Kills Someone - Charlie kills a bunch of exorcists, but no named characters, so I do not consider this to be correct in the way I meant it. This will reappear on my season 2 predictions card(s).
Seven Years Lore - We know where Lilith has been for her seven years; Alastor is still an unknown quantity. Further, Lilith still has a lot of mystery surrounding why she is where she is.
Confirmation Alastor Cares (explicitly!!!) - I definitely think we see Alastor caring a lot about the hotel crew (and Charlie in particular), but it wasn't explicit enough for me to consider the square fully met. Him handing Charlie his staff not once but twice, especially since it seems he relies on it for his powers has me in a chokehold.
That One Square:
Adam is Exiled To Hell - I'm not calling this one until season two drops, just because we saw Sir Pentious arrive in Heaven after his death, so I don't think it's out of the realm of possibility this holds true. However, there isn't enough to go on for me to feel comfy declaring one way or the other.

How are you Lavi? I was wondering, have you have shared your opinion about the end of Supernatural? I would especially love to hear your thoughts about Destiel and that love confession.
hey! I'm... extremely tired because a lot of stuff is going on that I will partially share on main about soon but has been sapping my energies a lot (i'm OOOLD) but it could be worse, thank you <3
also, wrt spn: I think I did say it in scattered posts but if you want the condensed version:
I had quit spn like early s12 at the hitler episode then I finished it after the ending because I figured I owed it to them after watching the finale live as it aired so... it was something but going in order
I actually greatly enjoyed s12-15 up to the end and I was pleasurably surprised - like okay it was the usual crazy shit half of the time and it def had gone on too long but 12-15 were eons better than the slug that was 9-11 and I had a lot of genuine fun when watching them and like they actually look/are extremely coherent for spn standards so I mostly have positive stuff on the topic like the apocalypse universe was cool, the ketch redemption arc was cool, tombstone and the tarantino episode were a masterpiece (and the 80s rock episode too sdlgkjd same as the scooby doo crossover) and I loved chuck as the villain and how meta that was
concerning deancas and the love confession: I mean as the resident idiot who had written her first deancas fic after 4x03 aired I always thought that they didn't know what they had been doing until like s5 when they realized what they were doing (sorry no one convinces that 5x03 wasn't written by someone who didn't have the deancas agenda in mind in spades) but like I generally thought that if it went somewhere it was gonna end with sam retiring and being a man of letters or smth like that and deancas going off to fight monsters in a way where you could frame it as THEY ARE BEST FRIENDS™ in places where them being gay would be frowned upon
I also thought that if anything happened whether like... either canonization or adjacent-canonization it was gonna be the last five minutes of the series finale because otherwise some parts of fandom wouldn't have let anyone involved with that show live which is why I was pleasurably shocked the confession was in ep 18 and not 20
now: I think the network authorized it and then chickened out when covid hit because the way the entire thing is structured... like sorry but this story starts with cas rescuing dean from hell, in 18 cas ends up in the empty from which he can obviously be rescued, in 19 every single plotline gets wrapped except that one in an episode that can work as a finale-finale if you leave it at that and I'm supposed to think that the og plan for ep 20 didn't include a reverse thing where dean got him out and they made out? sorry at this point bite me I'mma put my money on that esp given that...
... episode 20 is the most useless finale i've ever seen in the sense that literally nothing happens in it, the show itself had fillers where more shit happened like honestly I've never seen 40 minutes of a show that were more... a waste of time and resources and effort as that one, it looked like they told the writers they needed to have dean and sam be bros™ one of them had to die and they met in heaven again and they did that but just that X°D like sorry but the vampire porn diaries had the exact same finale template - one brother dies the other lives a happy normal life and they meet again in heaven -, s8 of tvd was vastly worsely written than spn s15 like i'm not even arguing that, but if you look at tvd finale actually shit happens in it and when you watch it it actually looks decent/wraps things up/makes you feel stuff, the spn finale is just stupid but I can't even be angry at it because imvho it's obvious they did it on purpose X°D but like tldr if the og plans hadn't been scrapped whatever they were they would have had an ep 20 where shit actually happened and that wasn't the drag it was, and like if it had come at the end of a badly written season (like tvd) I'd have just shrugged and whatever but... it came after an actually well-written season that was actually coherent with the previous four ones so I can't believe that was the real endgame content really XD
anyway: the confession was imvho absolutely ic and coherent with the entire thing starting from s4 because like sorry cas being in love with dean since then is just blatantly making sense, I never thought once it was baiting or teasing because only ppl who never watched the show would think the delivery was bad or that either misha or jensen were cringing while saying their lines, cas saying exactly the stuff he said made absolute sense in context, dean's reaction (as much as I'm sure they cut stuff) was absolutely sensed as well and no one tells me he didn't reciprocate bc the entire thing was built so that he'd admit it to himself at the very end and I mean anon my friend my comrade when I watched that episode I cried for twenty minutes straight after I finished it so X°D
like okay yeah part of it was the SEE WE WERE RIGHT ALL ALONG FUCK THE DENIERS but most of it was that I honestly was moved and I found that entire speech extremely heartfelt, meaningful and a whole lot of things I'm not sharing on main because I don't want people deciding stuff based on it but like I have zero negative things to say about that confession, I'm glad it happened and I don't regret catching up also because it happened as it really felt like the natural reaching point of cas's whole arc, I'm just sad that whatever the fuck went on with the cw they didn't let dean have a decent ending bc honestly what the fuck was that thing and they deserved to be happy without presuming they met offscreen in heaven or whatever the fuck but honestly all my issues with spn's ending are with the cw obviously getting cold feet concerning episode 20
tldr: the ending-ending sucked but up until 15x19 I thoroughly enjoyed most of what I saw nonsensical or not because at that point spn was the kinda thing you watched bc you liked it with all the faults it has, I 100% believe that the last episode sucked on purpose because I've never seen a finale done with so little effort after four seasons full of effort ever like not even penny dreadful whose finale imvho sucked on purpose sucked this much but like getting there was worth it and deancas being canon in itself was smth I never thought we'd get this explicitly and I'm very very very happy it happened, peace
#anonymous#ask post#supernatural for ts#otp: don't ever change#otp: i'd rather have you#otp: i love you#i mean... i don't even know how to say it#but i've been shipping dc since 2009#seeing it become A Thing was... something#like really fucking SOMETHING#and again that confession was written in a way that resonated with me a lot#so personally i have nothing to say about it except if i ever meet berens#i'mma cry in front of him probably#i mean#if i ever have spn convention funds again and get to talk to misha it's gonna be extremely embarrassing but#he prob deserves to know he made me bawl so#destiel for ts#/o\

[rest])
SO WHAT HAPPENED WAS the line n the guys were separated by a table but only 6/7 of them fit behind it, so ck, who was last in line, was kind of standing sideways since he was facing one of the table's shorter sides (omg i hope this is making sense). and i was going by them one by one, standing in front of each member individually, so by the time i got to him after jooheon, only his side profile was facing me bc he was basically facing the same fan as jooheon at the same time and i obviously had missed that LOL so i was just staring at his right cheek and i said "hey omg, i love you" or smth and stood there for a couple seconds waiting for his response but he never turned to me or said anything LMFAO girl i left there crying of anger 💀 but like now i get it that it was just mishap n shit happens lol
but yours omg nooooooo hahsjahsjsbjs im so sorry!! jsjsisjdksj also that was SUCH a ck reaction jesus christ god almighty in heaven. im glad the one w seongmin wasn't as bad though! jajsjskjsksjsj
HI I'M SO SORRY I'M ANSWERING THIS SO VERY VERY LATE 😭 but also I didn't want to leave it in my inbox and not reply at all aklsdjfk thank you again for reading the hi touch/fansign post, I know I said it once but 🥹 and omggggg you got to meet pentagon!!! I don't blame you for feeling the same way I would too but there really were just too many of them and it really was pretty boy overload. I think the masterpiece tour is wrapping up now and it makes me sad because I hope they do a part two or just another tour in general, I'm crossing my fingers for you that they go to brazil someday!!! 😭 (the eye contact is still killing me, months later... I have flashbacks to the event and melt)
OMG NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO what the heck who organized the event to make it like that klajsdfk so they were squished 😭😭😭😭 I'm sure he didn't ignore you on purpose hearing that but also it's kind of like... funny in a not funny way to be like "I got ignored by changkyun" but omg I'd be so mad too especially with how much we pay for these things like organizers please do better I want a full experience 😭
LOL it really was such a changkyun reaction I'm taking this one to the grave as one of my most embarrassing moments 💀 brains don't work well under pressure. seongmin's really wasn't as bad but I'm still very !!!! because oops why did I have to make that awkward eye contact

Top 5 queer characters
ooooh good one, thank you !!
5. Frankie Bergstein. The most gentle soul out there, hilarious whether she wants to be or not, an incredibly loving and warm character who ends up falling in love with a woman who's shown her nothing but disdain most of their lives before they end up in the same shitty situation. What i especially love about her is that in my headcanon where that show didn't queerbait us to death, she's the bold and crazy one who doesn't care about other people's opinion, she's the one you'd expect to be brave and loud and clear about how she's in love with her best friend and it's not just platonic. But i actually love the idea that she might be the one struggling most with that realization and how to act on it, because she used to be so open and loving of everything and everyone (and still seems that way) for the seven decades before the show starts ; and she got her heart broken so badly from the twenty year old affair, that although she did get attached to Grace quickly enough and jokes about being more than friends all the time, she's deadly afraid of those feelings and what may come of them. I absolutely love this strong and funny and silly woman on the outside, who hides a much more vulnerable and frightened woman on the inside, who deserves all the lifetime of love and affection Grace has never allowed herself to feel or show anyone.. until now, post-canon !!
4. Crawley, my actual demon child, who is way too good for this world, and the other two he's visited. (And i've been torturing myself for a solid half hour trying to pick between him and his equally amazing boyfriend Aziraphale, and ended up flipping a coin for it. I'm sorry Aziraphale. I love you so much.) Anyways, back to Crawley and his ridiculous crush on an angel that makes him do crazy things such as going to actual heaven to save said angel's ass, and who embodies Iris by the Goo goo Dolls so perfectly it's a lil suspicious and he probably had smth to do with that song coming to life while he was under cover on Earth. I love a tv show that brings a book to my attention, i loved both of those media and i cannot wait for season 2.
(do i need to explain that gif choice ? no i don't. bye.)
3. Charity Dingle, chaotic bisexual icon if i ever saw one !! haven't had a chance to catch up with the soap since the Vanity shit hit the fan, but i'll get back to her one day because i miss the truly Slytherin Queen that she is (sorry for the HP mention but it belongs to us now, fuck JKR and terfs in general). Pretty sure she's the most flawed character in this list, but i apparently LOVE a queer anti hero ? She's a lot of things and not all of them good ; she's a cheat, a liar, a bad mom most of the time, selfish and venale and has trust issues towards everyone and herself the size of a mountain. She's also a survivor of terrible abuse, a fighter, a love-starved but deeply insecure person who won't let that be seen easily. She's the only such representation i've ever seen of a wlw woman esp in a popular soap, and her simply existing gives me so much hope that society might just be evolving in the right direction ? Idk man, on the good days where i still have faith for lgbt future, she sorta gives me hope for our queer lives to become part of the norm and not just sensational and weird.
2. Regina Mills from OUAT. What a great show with a great lesbian power couple and awesome message about queer families, or so i'm yelling somewhere in that parallel universe where the two cowards who wrote it grew courage instead of magic beans and made Swan Queen canon. I grew to love this character, it wasn't love at first sight (although def lust at first sight, shout out to them Evil Queen gowns) and now i'm trying to write self indulgent fics from her pov and day dreaming about all the things she deserved that she never got. Best redemption arc (apart from my #1 down there maybe) i've ever seen, a full badass bitch energy. Sidenote, Lana Parrilla being the biggest and loudest Swan Queen supporter in the cast felt suspicious to me in the beginning (idk, i don't get me either), but i'm finally at a point where i can fully appreciate how awesome that was of her.
(Yes that gif was queerbait. Yes i still get excited seeing it.)
1. Obv my number 1 queer bitch forever is ROOT from Person of Interest, it's been 6 years and i'm still in denial of the byg trope they pushed down my throat a meer day after she finally got her tiny sociopathic soulmate back. She was a lot of things that i can't detail or i would die from dehydration bc the tears would consume my entire stock of water, but she also happened to appear in a TV show i actually loved. I mean i did start watching strictly for the gayness i vaguely knew was ahead, let's be real, but POI is a show i really came to love so much even when she wasn't a main character. It touched me deeply, and i still rewatch it and get blown away by the genius of so many of its episodes, from the mind blowing plot twists to the soundtrack. I had so many kids on that show and loved them all so much, just thinking about it hurts... We were robbed of a Shoot reboot, and i'll leave it at that.
(look at her being so passionate and right and fierce and hot. loooooook. i would have followed her into battle from day one of her psych ward escape 😢 )
#root#regina mills#charity dingle#crawley#frankie bergstein#wlw#lgbt characters#lgbt stuff#person of interest#once upon a time#emmerdale#good omens#gay omens#grace and frankie#still mad at three fo these for their finales lmao#tumblr games#trying-to-get-somewhere-real#asks#I HAD TO PICK AMONGST ALL MY KIDS I FEEL LIKE SUCH A BAD PARENT AAAH

For me i would say SKZ are versatile music wise as much as they can.
Because is hard to find a specific sound to build your brand and with SKZ is even harder because they do their own music (most of their music).
The problem with a lot of groups i think is that they need to make music (find concepts, etc) that are different enough to say "oh! That's ___!" "That sounds like ___", because if not, they just fall in the middle... like tbh for me most of kpop groups.
That's why Chan while he was making the arregament with Versachoi for the God's D4 for Kingdom kept repeating that they needed to add the "SKZ's colour" wich means he found a specific sound (or music structure) that makes you say "that's SKZ" and that's what people likes and expect from them.
Before i became i stay i didn't like Get Cool, Akward Silence, Blue Print, Heaven, I am You, School Life, Ex, On Track, Astronaut, because that wasn't what i was looking for in SKZ (i love those songs now btw...not yet IAY tho). So if they experiment with their sound, they do it for the b-sides, because the general public just listen to their title tracks.
But i repeat, even with that, i think they are pretty versatile because they do their own music and they like to experiment.
For other groups like...BP for example, were they just have a bunch of composers (or even just 1) is even worse 'cause their composers make music trying to fit a concept for those groups and most of the time, sounds really similar.
I don't know of i am too biased lol but every time i compare SKZ's albums i think they are pretty different from each other and i see the progression, changes and experimentation.
Now, for the concept in style, make up and albums (photobooks) i agree 100% and is because they aren't in charge, look how different their concepts are for the new units, that's bc they took participation in that. For Kingdom it was the same, just for the God's D4 stage we got a different styling but the other stages was the same in different color :(
hi sorry for just replying. your ask is already quite long so i'll answer all of this under the cut
i think personally theyre versatile to an extent. ofc versatility means theyre able to pull off different concepts + song genres. they are able to pull it off actually (e.g songs like on track, oh vs songs like god's menu) but they don't showcase it that much. i do agree that they have a distinct sound to them that makes people say 'oh it's skz'.
idk what to say about this part bc i actually love love songs like get cool, blueprint, on track, etc. i think experimenting with their sound for title tracks is important not only to showcase that you're able to pull it off but it attracts people that actually likes these type of songs. do you know how many people became fans because of songs that you mentioned earlier? i understand the need to play it safe so they save it for their b tracks, but i think experimenting, trying out new things, is good too. and you already mentioned the part of songs being distinctly skz. they surely do that already to their b sides.
i also want to say then, that they are versatile. but to me, i think theyre able to do so much more than all of this. so many concepts that they still havent tried, so many more songs. they could do songs that are much vocal friendly too.
i wanna say smth about what u said abt bp but smdkfmlsdkf im not rlly sure what you mean ? they've been using 1 producer this whole time and i have to admit theyre the ones who really started this whole noise music wave. are you saying that they felt the need to continue the trend so they continuously try to make similar music?
personally, i do see some changes and experimentation in their songs. again, i'm not really good with words so i still can't explain my thoughts properly, but even their edm ~noise~ music sound the same. while it's good that it's distinctly skz, it's becoming redundant in a way? i said earlier to take 127 as an example. theyre also really big on noise usage but each noise/sound is very distinctly different (punch, kick it, simon says, fire truck) while it still maintains the 127 noise quality.
for concept style, i dont agree in terms of saying that theyre in charge. skz has been able to freely create their own music, so why not concept wise? i really believe that they have a lot to say in terms of concept, mv production, design etc. they create their own songs, so they must have a specific concept in mind going in, which translates to what they do in terms of design. chan even made the skz logo so i doubt theyre not in charge.

seungmin'a voice just struck me like lightning the first time i heard it. i wasn't even paying much attention (mia was one of the first few songs i listened of them to get into the group) but then his voice popped in and i went !!! who that what the literally heaven ?!!! his voice is so loud and bright but in a very... transcending way, if you know what i mean? like he is singing through my soul. and ever since then i am just whipped for his singing 😔💞 (1/3)
anon asked: insomnia is one of my favorite songs of them too 🤧 the beat and the drop is 👌 but what lured me in the most is hyunjin's singing? especially during the slowing down part (i know there is a way to call that part, i just don't know what it is). like ooh he sounds really soothing and it makes me want to calm down a bit. (2/3)
anon asked: you've never tired boba before 😮 that's surprising considering how popular it is now. i have been drinking it since young but i've kind of stopped because a lot of them are overpriced ☹️ it's definitely worth the try though! - 🦊 (3/3)
ooof ya i totally understand what you mean w seungmin’s voice. if i’m being honest it’s only recently that it struck me yknow? like, i knew he was talented n what not but recently there’s just been smth that resonates w me about it. it’s entrancing just, warm😌
and ya hyunjin’s voice pairs really well with the slowed-down(??) parts of their songs. he’s really versatile (i think skz are in general), but smth strikes me with the serenity in his voice?? if that even makes sense alakalslsl🥴
and i’ve really been meaning to try boba! my friend’s sister actually worked at a shop for a while so she’d get drinks p often, i’ve just never got around to it tho. maybe i’ll get some soon. i just? know like jack shit about it alakalalals
